That’s a personal philosophy I have, which I think a lot of university presidents share. We don’t really take positions on external political issues unless it has a direct connection to higher ed. I said we’re doing all the things behind that — all I care about really is our students and supporting them. I didn’t see an advantage other than negative and saying we don’t like Trump. I don’t like Trump — many students didn’t vote for Trump, but we do have some conservative students and they tend to be quieter.
